As my xr2 suffers from coolant temps on the last few trackdays,
i was wondering what other Trackday RST boy's run to keep their engine cool.


My xr2 is used very hard on the track with slicks, and i run between 190 - 220+bhp on the track on a 1.6 cvh turbo.


Up till now i've been using a xr2 rad, (same size core as a std RST)
(tried new copper and alloy cored rads) and after 5-8 mins into a hard session out on the track, the coolant reaches 95oC and fan cuts in,

i've tried different new stat's, and also running with out stat, and even had the fan on from the start of a session, and still the same.

The turbo coolant's disconnected to aid the temps, and oil temp is about 105oC.


Did look at fitting my spare cossie rad, but i havent got the width,
and also looked at a Alloy RST rad, but a mates got a pace item, and he suffers the same.


So is there a common upgrade larger rad off another car?
